Beaming 32nd note triplets

When a quarter note is divided into twelve 32nd note triplets, for ease of reading, is there a way to beam the 32nds showing three groups of four 32nds instead of having the 3 beams connect all twelve 32nd notes? I'm on Sibelius 6.2.0 and on an iMac OS Sierra 10.12.6. Thanks!

Re: Getting true flat/sharp signs in text

Thanks very much for your July 2021 emails on this topic. I have Sibelius version 6.2.0 and with your information went to House Style in the main menu, then to Edit all Fonts in the dropdown. I chose the main text font to edit, switched to Opus Chords,and bingo, I could type in true flat and sharp s...

Re: Getting true flat/sharp signs in text

Thank you for your help. I've learned about the text <right click menu> in the process, and will see if I can procure those pesky accidentals from a PC-using Sibelius colleague. All best wishes.

Re: Getting true flat/sharp signs in text

I emailed my colleague who also has Sibelius on a Mac. Her version is 8.0.1 and she writes that she too does not have accidentals on her text right click list. Any further thoughts?
Thanks!

Re: Getting true flat/sharp signs in text

No, I have not edited the standard font assignments.
I have sent the instructions you sent, re right clicking on tempo text, to a colleague to generate what I need. I'm thinking I may be able to paste from her document into mine.
Thank you for your help.

Re: Getting true flat/sharp signs in text

My <plain system text> right click menu looks identical to yours with the exception that my menu ENDS at the em dash.......there are no accidentals following the em dash on my menu. This is the case with tempo text and boxed system text as well.......flat, natural and sharp signs do not appear to be...

Re: Getting true flat/sharp signs in text

Thank you, Mike, for your response. [ctrl][numpad7/8/9] does not work, nor does Create>Text>Other System Text>Boxed System Text or Plain System Text. I’m just remembering that when I bought my iMac 10.12.6, Sibelius 6.2 was listed as “not compatible”, and while It actually has worked quite well for ...

Getting true flat/sharp signs in text

Greetings and salutations. I am creating a score where I need to indicate key names (Bb, F#, etc.) on the left margin of the page where tempo markings often go. Because of the similar location, I was thinking of using Create>Text>Tempo to generate the text. However, this way I am stuck with “b”s and...
